Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You use one of the beds as a couch?

Gud, I also strongly recommend couple's counseling, and individual therapy for both of you. She may not agree to go, but you could probably benefit from therapy for yourself.

It's hard for me to reconcile your wife being great with kids and wanting to help people but she can't grasp that she needs to learn how to communicate effectively to have a relationship with a person with Aspie's.

Also, while I grok wanting to get as many miles as possible out of a car before it needs major repairs, when it's reached the point that something's wrong and you're not sure what and you're concerned about safety and getting it to the mechanic is disrupting your life AND you already have a new car -- that's it, that's the point of major repairs when it's time to let go. Now, you may not be able to convince your wife of that, but I want to assure you that you are being reasonable, wanting her to just stop driving the old car.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That house, Rebecca!! Oy. There are lots of wee single houses like that scattered throughout the city and I always wonder if they are really their own house or actually attached to the neighboring lot.

I NEED to grade today AND I have kid home with a fever, plus a cranky husband because he's been working too hard. Must find my place of Zen and just work, but feeling OY!

hip deep in pie

I have been trolling my brother with LA house listings all week ( they are moving in the fall). I have not sent this one yet, but it may be my favorite horrible one: [link]

More importantly, find them one with a guest house for you.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Sue that is an idea if they can find something. Most of the options I've seen with guest houses are either in rough shape or the guest house is a studio. I could do a studio, but it would be a lot to go from 1600 ft sq to like 300.

Fours years is ways off for me to still decide on a new location. Who knows, I may go abroad.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sue! I keep meaning to ask you - my parents are visiting Halifax this summer, are there any can't miss places they need to get to that wouldn't be on a tour (they're taking some kind of package tour for like a week and then renting a car and doing their own thing for another)? Especially vegan/vegan-friendly restaurants. And quilt shops.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought maybe it was being a Jeopardy contestant! And didn;t you get your hair cut on tv?

All true! Maybe I should double down on IMDB instead of trying to get off it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I now have two fewer teeth. No pain at all. Now waiting for prescription which I'll need when the shots wear off.

Yay tommy! I read that as "fever teeth" and wondered if that was an expression I didn't know. Then re-read.

I want to be on vacation again. Dang. Though I did just book a trip to DC for the weekend before Memorial Day weekend. I get to meet my friend's baby! And...have to run 11 miles in DC May weather. Uh oh

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

All true! Maybe I should double down on IMDB instead of trying to get off it.

You ARE a celebrity!

Excellent, tommy!

I am asleep. Maybe taking that antihistamine wasn't such a good idea.
